Subject: Wonderful Wedding, Wonderful Show, Wonderful Martin!
Echoing all Robert so eloquently wrote about this day and then some. This is one of Martin's last shows to be played before his unfortunate passing. We are all blessed to have known him and shared in his journey and music. Continue to share and download this amazing piece of history!

Subject: Blessed Communion
One of the most blessed communion's of two lives and great gatherings of people anytime, anywhere, anyhow... Bride Dawne & Groom Pete threw one helluva party, and this fine recording by fellow Tuner on the floor, Kerstin Weinberg is pristine & pretty.

Thanks to the Thugz, friends of the bride & groom, for playing their hearts out and to the "Meester," Martin Fierro for also going beyond the call of duty, playing from a wheelchair, due to a back injury.

Even if you were not guests at this event, this show will send chills down your spine. It kicks off with a Thugz original, written for the Bride & Groom, then surging into a barn burning "Eyes of the World," with the Meester blowing the roof off early on. Other treats include the overall tight playing from the Thugz all night, Sylvia's vocals on "How Sweet It Is," & "Dancing In The Street," Mike's incredible guitar and trumpet (check out the "Franklin's Tower!" and the "Shakedown"), and hearing the Meester go off on the whistle and singing lead during the "La Bamba" in that Good Lovin' sandwich. What an amazing day to be alive, great music from great people and real love all over the place! Thanks Martin, Melanie, Mike, Sylvia, Terry Ann, Chris, & Shawn. Love back to you all!
